I am confused. I don't understand what
works and what doesn't.
Stas may well be right: -mrate- could
be producing pure garbage. But I can't
comment on a program I can't see in
an area I don't know. From what
you tell us I still suggest
su v001, meanonly
local nclust = r(max)
gen mortrate = .
qui forval i=1/`nclust' {
cap mrate if v001==`i'
replace mortrate = $U_1_1 if v001 == `i'
}
Incidentally, from your information, -mrate- seems
a rather strange program if it doesn't
need to know what variables to work on.
